ASSEMBLY
Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is
coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the
top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal condition and does not affect treadmill perfor-
mance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild,
non-abrasive cleaner.
Assembly requires the included allen wrenches and your own phillips screwdriver
and wire cutters .
1. Make sure that the power cord is unplugged.
To identify small parts, use the PART IDENTIFICA-
TION CHART on page 27.
With the help of a second person, carefully raise the
Upright Base (97) to the position shown. Insert one of

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat-
form. Such substances will deteriorate the walking
belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of
your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at
the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local PROFORM dealer or call 1-800-806-3651
and order part number 146148.
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated
for 120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a
monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi-
cate whether it is functioning properly. Failure to
use a properly functioning surge suppressor could
result in damage to the control system of the
treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the
walking belt may change speed or stop unexpect-
edly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,
and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
DANGER: Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using either the
handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse
sensor.
To use the hand-
grip pulse sen-
sor, first make
sure that your
hands are clean.
Next, stand on
the foot rails
and place your
hands on the
metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor. Your
palms should be resting on the upper contacts
and your fingers should be touching the lower
contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When your
pulse is detected, two dashes (– –) will appear in

HOW TO USE PRESET PROGRAMS
Insert the key fully into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page
10.
Select one of the preset programs.
When the key
is inserted,
the manual
mode will be
selected. To
select a pre-
set program,
press the Program Select button repeatedly until
one of the six preset program indicators lights.
When a preset program is selected, the Speed
display will flash the maximum speed setting of
the program, and the Distance/Incline display will
flash the maximum incline setting, for six seconds.
The Time/Pace display will show how long the
program will last.
The matrix will show
the first seven speed
settings of the program.
Note: The profiles
below the matrix show
how the speed and in-
cline of the treadmill
will change during the programs.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several time seg-
ments of different lengths. One speed setting and
one incline setting are programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same speed setting and/or in-
cline setting may be programmed for consecutive
segments.
The speed setting for the
first segment is shown in
the flashing Current
Segment column of the
matrix. (The incline set-
tings are not shown in
the matrix.) The speed
settings for the next
seven segments are
shown in the seven columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash and a
series of tones will sound. In addition, if the speed
and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change,
the Speed display and/or the Distance/Incline dis-
play will flash to alert you. When the first segment
is completed, all speed settings will move one col-
umn to the left. The speed setting for the second
segment will then be shown in the flashing Current
Segment column and the treadmill will automati-
cally adjust to the speed and incline settings for
the second segment. Note: If all of the indicators in
the Current Segment column are lit after the speed
settings have moved to the left, the speed settings
will move downward so that only the highest indi-
cators appear in the matrix. If some of the indica-
tors in the Current Segment column are not lit
when the speed settings move to the left again, the
speed settings will move back up.
The program will continue in this way until the
speed setting for the last segment is shown in the
Current Segment column of the matrix and the
Time/Pace display counts down to zero. The walk-
ing belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low
at any time during the program, you can manually
override the setting by pressing the Speed or
Incline buttons. Every few times a Speed button is
pressed, an additional indicator will light or darken
in the Current Segment column. (If any of the
columns to the right of the Current Segment col-
umn have the same number of lit indicators as the
Current Segment column, an additional indicator
may light or darken in those columns as well.)
Note: When the next segment of the program
begins, the treadmill will automatically adjust
to the speed and incline settings for the next
segment.

HOW TO USE HEART RATE PROGRAMS
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.
Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sen-
sor (see page 20) to use a heart rate program.
Put on the chest pulse sensor.
See the instructions included with the optional
chest pulse sensor.
Insert the key fully into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page
10.
Select a heart rate program.
When the key
is inserted, the
manual mode
will be se-
lected. To se-
lect a heart
rate program,
press the Program Select button repeatedly until
one of the two heart rate program indicators lights.
The two profiles on the left side of the matrix show
how the target heart rate will change during the
programs. During heart rate program 1, your heart
rate will reach approximately 85% of your esti-
mated maximum heart rate; during heart rate pro-
gram 2, your heart rate will reach approximately
80% of your estimated maximum heart rate.
Note: Your estimated maximum heart rate is de-
termined by subtracting your age from 220. For
example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated
maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute
(220 – 30 = 190).

CAUTION: If you have heart prob-
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and
have been inactive, do not use the heart rate
programs. If you are taking medication regu-
larly, consult your physician to find whether the
medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

14
During heart rate pro-
grams, the matrix will
show a graphic that
represents your heart
rate. Each time a heart-
beat is detected, an ad-
ditional peak will ap-
pear.
Enter your age and a maximum speed setting.
When a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the
word “AGE” and the
current age setting will
flash in the Calories/
Pulse display. If you
have already entered
your age, simply press the Enter Age button. If
you have not entered your age, press the increase
and decrease buttons beside the Enter Age button
to enter your age. Then, press the Enter Age
button.
After you have entered
your age, the letters
“SPd” and the maxi-
mum speed setting of
the program will flash in
the Calories/Pulse dis-
play. If desired, press
the increase and decrease buttons beside the
Enter Age button to adjust the maximum speed
setting. When the desired setting is shown, press
the Enter Age button.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each heart rate program is divided into several time
segments of different lengths. One target heart rate
is programmed for each segment.
During each segment, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the current target heart
rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above
the target heart rate, the speed of the treadmill will
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the
speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the
program (see step 4 at the left) and your heart
rate is still too far below the current target heart
rate, the incline of the treadmill will also increase
to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart
rate.
During the last three seconds of each segment, a
series of tones will sound and the Speed display
and the Distance/Incline display will flash.
The program will continue until no time remains in
the program. The walking belt will then slow to a
stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low
at any time during the program, you can adjust the
setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However,
each time the console compares your heart rate to
the current target heart rate, the speed and/or in-
cline of the treadmill may automatically change to
bring your heart rate closer to the target heart
rate.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters “PLS” will flash in the Calories/
Pulse display and the speed and incline of the
treadmill may automatically decrease until your
pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the instruc-
tions included with the optional chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. Heart rate programs cannot be stopped
temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate
program again, reselect the program and start it at
the beginning.
Follow your progress with the displays.
See step 5 on page 10.
Turn on the fans if desired.
See step 7 on page 11.
